Cannot resolve network address for KDC

I don't know if this fixes your problem but here are some hints.

Check on conflicts between FQDN, hostname and IP-address. Those three parts
must be able to resolve to each other since they are used in several places.
The (server)principal in a KDC is a hostname, check Kerberos config files
for naming and IP-adresses, check DNS entries, check IP-address network
connectivity.

If this doesn't help try to sniff the network packets in the session, this
wil tell you what is going on.

Best regards,
Mario Hockx.
